Price Spread

The study was undertaken in Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh to assess the prices and profitability of chilli marketing. The study used both primary and secondary data collection. The elasticity coefficients for area (1.177) and material costs (3.699) were positively significant in Cobb- Douglas production function. In multiple regression analysis area, expenses on production material and expenses on marketing services were found significantly influencing the income of the farmers. In ARDL model for factors influencing market arrivals of commodities analysis R2 showed that 73 percent of variation and current prices were found significantly influencing the arrivals of the farmers. In ARDL model factors influencing current prices of commodities analysis R2 showed that 84 percent of variation and lagged prices (Pt-1 and Pt-2) were found significantly influencing the current price of the farmers. Also price spread analysis of data indicated that majority of farm produce was routed through two marketing channels, Channel-I (producer-trader-wholesaler-retailer-consumer) and Channel-II (producer-processor-retailer-consumer). Producer’s share in consumer’s rupee was found to be 80.51%, 76.72% and price spread was `1500.67, `1971.92 for Channel-I and Channel-II respectively. Marketing efficiency in channel I and channel II were 3.53, 14.11 and 2.93, 16.87 respectively in Acharya’s and Shepherd’s methods. Low price for the produce at the time of harvest and lack of transportation with scores 78.26 and 63.13 was the most important constraint faced by the farmers.

Lime Stone

Unpredictable rapid increased growth of population with increased lifting of water from the deeper crusts of earth leads severe groundwater contamination and also unrepairable damage to soil structure and its stability. The extent and severalty of damage to the groundwater and the soil depends on the nature and the toxicity of the pollutants. It is very difficult to identify exact sources of groundwater contamination as the sources are hidden from the sight even the sources are predicted it is difficult to measure the extent of damage to the groundwater and soil. Taken to consider it, the present study was carried out at Piduguralla municipal region, Guntur district Andhra Pradesh which is surrounded by limestone beds. Due to the availability and the abundance of natural lime stone the area is very much familiar with other name as ‘Lime city’ which is surrounded by number of lime stone and white cement industries. It was observed that chemicals from lime stone quarries damaging quality of both groundwater and the soil. Twenty five sampling locations were identified to collect groundwater samples along with ten soil sampling locations. Samples were collected for three times during the study period of three months and the average values were noted as final values, water quality results were correlated with IS5000 – 2012 standards to find out the suitability of water consumption, all the tests for both groundwater and the soil were carried out by adopting standard analytical procedures.

The Scheduled Castes, according to the 2011 census, are 20.13 crores and constitute 16.6 per cent of the total population of the country and have long suffered from extreme social and economic backwardness. The Scheduled Castes category comprises many castes which share certain common handicaps in relation to the rest of the castes in society. They are quite distinct in caste hierarchy. They are economically dependent, educationally backward, politically suppressed, and socially the worst sufferers. Further they were classed as untouchables. The term scheduled castes refers to a list of castes prepared in 1935 by the British Government in India. But during the ancient period and medieval period they were known as Panchamas (fifth group), Chandalas (heathens or outeastes) and Antyajas (lowest class), and during the British period they came to be called first as Depressed Classes (dalitjatis) or Exterior Castes (avarnas), later as Harijans (children of God), and finally as Scheduled Castes (castes listed in the Government Schedule Article 341).

More than seventy percent of the area and production is found in Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. Anantapur district is the largest groundnut producing district The present study was carried out with the objective of exploring movement of produce along the value chain, the Value addition, Price spread and Profit margins incurred and found that there is a wide range of price gap observed from producer of oilseed to the final consumer of edible oil due to the number of stakeholders involved in the value chain.
